To find the hypotenuse of a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem, which states that the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. In this case, both legs of the triangle are 18 inches long. So, using the formula c^2 = a^2 + b^2, where c represents the hypotenuse and a and b are the other two sides, we get c^2 = 18^2 + 18^2. Solving this equation gives us c^2 = 648, and taking the square root of 648 gives us c ≈ 25.46 inches. Therefore, the hypotenuse of a triangle with legs of 18 inches each is approximately 25.46 inches.
What else can I help you with?
If you divide length of the opposite side of an angle in a right triangle by the length of the hypotenuse what value do you get?
You get the sine of the angle. For a right triangle: sin (x) = opposite/hypotenuse cos (x) = adj./hypotenuse tan (x) = opposite/adj
If 45- 45- 90 triangle has a hypotenuse of length 18 units What is the length of one of the legs?
If a 45- 45- 90 triangle has a hypotenuse of length 18 units, the length of both of the other legs is: 12.73 units.
How do you find the hypotenuse of an equilateral triangle?
You can't as there is no hypotenuse in an equilateral triangle. The hypotenuse is the side of a triangle which is opposite a right angle (90°); all angles in an equilateral triangle are 60°.

If you divide length of the opposite side of an angle in a right triangle by the length of the hypotenuse what value do you get?
You get the sine of the angle. For a right triangle: sin (x) = opposite/hypotenuse cos (x) = adj./hypotenuse tan (x) = opposite/adj
Right triangle with a hypotenuse of 18 and a leg of 6?
and the question is?
Definition of the 6 trigonometric functions?
The six main trigonometric functions are sin(x)=opposite/hypotenuse cos(x)=adjacent/hypotenuse tan(x)=opposite/adjacent csc(x)=hypotenuse/opposite cot(x)=adjacent/opposite sec(x)=hypotenuse/adjacent Where hypotenuse, opposite, and adjacent correspond to the three sides of a right triangle and x corresponds to an angle in that right triangle.
What descibes the relationship between the length of the legs and the hypotenuse in a right triangle?
They are described by the famous Pythagoras theorem, if "a" and "b" are the legs and "h" the hypotenuse, then h x h = (a x a) + (b x b) Also a = h x sinB (where B is the internal angle (of the triangle) between the hypotenuse and side b and b = h x sinA (where A is the internal angle (of the triangle) between the hypotenuse and side a
What is hypotenuse for triangle 16ft X 36ft?
Providing that it is a right angle triangle then by using Pythagoras' theorem the hypotenuse works out as about 39.39543121 ft
What does sin x mean?
It means the ratio of the opposite angle to the hypotenuse of a triangle for angle "x". This is for a right triangle.
If 45- 45- 90 triangle has a hypotenuse of length 18 units What is the length of one of the legs?
If a 45- 45- 90 triangle has a hypotenuse of length 18 units, the length of both of the other legs is: 12.73 units.
How do you work out the base of an isosceles triangle?
Using trigonometry. The Hypotenuse x The height
What is the value of x in a triangle if the hypotenuse is 28 and the other leg is 14?
24.25
In an isosceles right triangle the hypotenuse is radical three and if the hypotenuse is 12 then what is the smaller leg of that triangle?
If the hypotenuse is the square root of three, then the legs are (root 6)/2. If the hypotenuse is 12, then the legs are 6(root 2). This is because, for any given right isosceles triangle, the length of the hypotenuse x is root two times the length of the legs.
What are the lengths of the missing sides of a 30-60-90 triangle if the longer leg of the triangle is 18 centimeter?
The longest side of the triangle will always be opposite the largest angle, which is 90° in this case. We can use the sine law to work out the other sides with that: sin(90°) / 18 = sin(60°) / x = sin(30°) / y 1/18 = sin(60°) / x x = 18 sin(60°) x = 18√3 / 2 x = 9√3 1/18 = sin(30°) / y y = 18 sin(30°) y = 9 So the triangle has a sides of 9 and 9√3, with a hypotenuse of 18
